The Los Angeles Dodgers and their longtime manager Dave Roberts have agreed to a contract extension that will keep him with the team through 2029, as announced on Tuesday night. Roberts is set to earn just over $8 million per year, totaling $32.4 million over four years.
Roberts, 52, has completed nine successful seasons as the Dodgers manager, boasting an impressive record of 851-506. During his tenure, the Dodgers have made nine postseason appearances, won eight division titles, achieved five 100-win seasons, secured four pennants, and clinched two World Series titles in 2020 and 2021.

Roberts’ impressive winning percentage of .627 ranks him as the all-time leader among managers with at least 1,000 games managed in MLB. Additionally, he is 12th all-time in games over .500 with 344 and counting, and his 56 postseason wins place him sixth all-time.
Looking ahead to the 2025 season, the Dodgers are aiming to become the first team since the 1999-2000 New York Yankees to win back-to-back championships. Meanwhile, Roberts is striving to become the 11th manager in history to secure at least three World Series titles. The Dodgers have made significant moves in the offseason, including signing players like Blake Snell, Roki Sasaki, and Michael Conforto, while retaining talents such as Blake Treinen, Clayton Kershaw, and Teoscar Hernández.
The Dodgers will kick off the MLB regular season next week by facing the Chicago Cubs in the Tokyo Series, a two-game series held in Japan. This marks the second consecutive year that the Dodgers have started their season overseas.
